HAPPY HELLO BAG:

Hello there! Today I have a happy little treat holder to share with you. I made this for my hostess this month using the Happy Hello Simply Sent Kit and Vine Street Embossing Folder-both SAB products that you can get for FREE with a $50 purchase, but only available for a couple more weeks! I started with a half of a sheet of So Saffron 12 x 12 Cardstock and ran it through the Big Shot using the Fancy Favor Die. I then ran it through again using the embossing folder. I then flipped the embossing folder around to emboss the other end of the cardstock. I assembled the bag with Sticky Strip and then cut the purse flap from one of the cards in the Happy Hello Kit. I scored it and attached it to the back of the bag with Sticky Strip. I used a Velcro Dot to close the flap.

I made one of the fun flowers from the Pop Up Posies Designer Kits and attached it to the purse flap with Glue Dots. The sentiment is from Made For You and is stamped in Crumb Cake ink onto Crumb Cake Cardstock and punched out with the Modern Label Punch. I tucked it under the flower with Glue Dots.


Next, I used my Crop-O-Dile to punch a hole on each side and ran a piece of Natural Trim Ribbon through the holes for a handle. I tied a knot on the inside of each hole. Then I filled it up with Cadbury Eggs-it holds a bunch! The brad in the center of the flower is Summer Starfruit, but I didn't have any 12 x 12 cardstock, so I used So Saffron, and you would never know they weren't the same color-they blend together perfectly! This would also make a nice Mother's Day favor. You may not see me back here for a few days while I knock out my 'Kits/Cards To Go', but I'll be back soon. Thanks so much for stopping by!
